there is a lot of talk about deficit and long-term growth. the subject of long-term unemployment has virtually disappeared since obama decided to abandon the stimulus, and i do not think in my ideal media world -- the media would be more effective at moving issues like that back on the agenda. >> ok. pessimistic and all of the things that they have a hard time being. i thought we were famous for complaining all of the time. one or two notes before i get to the awful stuff. first of all, it is truly uplifting, i think everyone would agree, to see so many people turning out on an early saturday morning when you could be doing other things. there has to be a rerun of " housewives of orange county," or sipping cappuccinos, rather than talking about this. as someone who has knocked around in for a few years, it is truly cheery to me to see that passion out there and that you have voted with your feet in such numbers, so thank you all for making me feel good. as i look across the coverage of this campaign, there are a few things i think are worth p

romney narrowed deficit about who cares for the middle class. there are kind of four important metrics i've been paying a lot of attention to within our poll and other polls that are kind of lower in the cross tabs but matter a great deal which is, who is a strong leader? who can get things done? and those have been neck-and-neck. romney has had the lead on who can actually get things done and, i think he will, he will build on that. but the fact that more people thought romney would be the best of the two candidates to actually accomplish something shows there was upside potential and upside growth. you remember back in 2008, i've been saying this for months, at the height of his popularity barack obama only got 52.9% of the popular vote. so, even though he still is leading in the swing states and those will tighten up, romney does have a floor that he can build off of from 2008. >> holman, a great american. we appreciate it. enjoy the rest of your night in denver. this is what i call an honor. craig gordon, runs our coverage. don't even know w
